Chapter 50: Hidden Base
The Earth Legion retreated in a well-organized state. The three assault ships of the pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info form a zigzag shape and sit firmly in the center. Transport helicopters surround them from 360 degrees, while on the outermost periphery are helicopter gunships. There are also two large groups of helicopter gunships that alternately lag behind to defend the rear of the entire force.
Under such strict defense, many Na'vi people who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity were killed. After paying some price, they began to gather together honestly, following in the footsteps of the Earth Legion.
With these tracking troops as cover, Meng Chen's whereabouts became more secretive. In order to prevent the Kingwing Beast from causing a riot among the Na'vi, he chose to act alone. From his point of view, the whole picture of these two forces can be clearly seen.
The Na'vi who followed behind the Earth Legion covered half of the sky, and the Na'vi on both wings had even surpassed the front. They seemed to form a colorful wild goose, ready to devour the little beetle struggling to escape in front of them. Not only in the air, but also on the ground, the heavily armored horse knights followed. These Na'vi people communicated with shouts and horns, and the sounds came and went, as if it were a great celebration of heaven and earth.
This warlike force followed behind the Earth Legion for a long time, as if they were only intent on pushing the earthlings outward, and had no intention of encircling and annihilating them.
If both forces are under the control of Team Americas 3, then this bitter ploy will play out very well. But Meng Chen still discovered a phenomenon. None of these Na'vi came from the direction of the Earth Legion's advance. It's as if the direction of the Earth Legion is a black hole, and the Na'vi people are afraid to avoid it.
In the course of this chase, Meng Chen also passed through several Na'vi tribes, which also caught his attention.
The first tribes had obvious gathering areas with a lot of people. When they notice the spectacle in the sky, many people will run out and cheer, and some of the tribal warriors will even take to the air to join the chasing army.
But as we advanced, there were fewer and fewer of these well-established tribes. Those tribes are either sparsely populated, or the few tribesmen who are few are also sick. In the end, Meng Chen even saw a no-man's tribal gathering area. A living area in the dense forest, which had obviously just been abandoned, was presented in front of Meng Chen, which shocked him.
While Meng Chen paid attention to the tribes passing by, he continued to pay attention to the sky chase battle.
When they reached a point, the Na'vi suddenly stopped advancing, as if they had touched a transparent wall. Both the sky and the ground forces came to an abrupt end here.
This neat action even made Meng Chen a little confused, and he also controlled the King Winged Beast and performed an emergency brake. Then cautiously groped forward, ahead ......
Nothing!
Meng Chen noticed that there were a few Na'vi people who wanted to move on, but they only turned around and quickly returned. They watched as the earthlings marched forward, but they didn't dare to take a step forward anyway.
Of course, Meng Chen would not stop, he still followed behind the Earth Legion.
Continuing from that dividing line, it felt like the whole forest was asleep. Aside from abandoned tribal settlements, not a single Na'vi can be seen.
The deathly silence made Meng Chen very uncomfortable. It felt as if there were no other animals around the lair of a large beast. The earthlings must have cleared this area.
But this raises the question, why are there no traces of fighting in these tribal areas?
Meng Chen quietly followed behind the team with questions. Until the sunset on the horizon was half embedded in the sky like a huge red disc, and the hideous Earth Legion and the entire dense forest were dyed blood-red. Meng Chen finally saw the tumorous base at the end of the horizon.
A mysterious base, hidden deep in the uninhabited forest.
It's a purely militarized base, it's perfectly round, and it's ten times the size of Hell's Gate. The concrete walls are taller and thicker than the Gates of Hell. Automatic turrets are deployed on the city walls, one every 20 meters, and mechs patrol them. Outside the city walls is nearly a kilometer of cleared area, and although there are no mines, muddy ponds can slow down the advance of ground troops.
With the exception of a few motor vehicles, this force is all aircraft and mechs, and they are a combat force armed to the teeth.
The situation inside the Gates of Hell was not clear from Meng Chen's distance and angle, he could only see that in the center was a large conjoined building and satellite communication tower. Several other areas that can be identified include space airfields, barracks, and factories. Meng Chen was sure that this base could manufacture all kinds of weapons and equipment on its own, including large equipment such as assault ships.
Having entered the defensive range of the base, the assault ship and the helicopter separated. The assault ship slowly landed on the large airfield, while the helicopter flew into the three-dimensional hangar like a bird's nest, and Meng Chen found that the helicopters of this army had just filled the first floor of the hangar, while the other two floors were still empty.
As soon as the planes came to a standstill, ground crews rushed out and began methodically overhauling and replenishing their ammunition. And from the factory, there are constantly newly manufactured helicopters into the arms of the three-dimensional hangar. The main entrance of a large factory slowly opened, and from inside there was an assault ship slowly flying out against the ground. Its four turbofan engines create powerful airflows that blow chilling on the ground.
Looking at this army, Meng Chen's heart was cold.
At first, they still fantasized that the Na'vi would be able to defeat them. But now it seems that even if the earthlings make tactical mistakes, it will be impossible to defeat. The disparities in productivity are already too obvious. Even if all Pandora's Sky Knights and Winged Beasts were concentrated and the earthlings' air forces were killed, they would not be able to break through the defenses of this base. And the earthlings can easily regroup their forces to prepare for another battle in the future.
Meng Chen took a few deep breaths and suppressed his fluctuating emotions. He knew he couldn't get any closer, and the muzzle of the cannon aimed at the sky would never open the net for him. But his curiosity to find out made it necessary for him to reconnoiter from a closer distance.
He plans to connect with Ava through the Kingwinged Beast, so that he can get a sense of the distribution of power around the base through Ava's network.
But just as he tried to connect with Ava, he felt like he was hitting a boulder head-on. After a sharp pain, his consciousness faded.
In the end, he only felt himself falling from the sky. (To be continued.) )
